Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
The Tamil-speaking community is not in the majority in Sri Lanka. The major community in Sri Lanka is the Sinhala-speaking community. There are two major communities in Sri Lanka: the Sinhala-speaking community, comprising seventy-four per cent of the total population, and the Tamil-speaking community, comprising eighteen per cent of the total population. Hence, the Tamil-speaking community is in the minority in Sri Lanka. And as a result of this, the Tamil-speaking community, including the 'Sri Lankan Tamils' (people who speak the Tamil language but belong to Sri Lanka) and the 'Indian Tamils', have faced many complex problems.
The correct statement would be the Sinhala-speaking community is the majority in Sri Lanka.
